Tashvir A: Sustainabilism

Sustainabilism

Exposing the Sustainability Illusion

In this major new contribution to Heidegger studies, Christopher Fynsk provides an original account of Heidegger's reflections on art, and in particular the poetic work of art, to explore the central yet overlooked Heideggerian idea that all art has a rhythmic character. Following the development of Heidegger's thoughts on rhythm, this book focuses especially on the critical moment of Heidegger's turn to art in the mid-1930s and his reading of Friedrich Hölderlin's river hymns. This not only allows for a new reading of his monumental essay "The Origin of the Work of Art", but also a sustained analysis of his engagement with Hölderlin and Aristotle. Importantly, it further reveals the centrality of rhythm to Heidegger's thought and its relation to his other ideas. Indeed Fynsk connects rhythm to Heidegger's theorization of usage, "der Brauch", and in turn the role of usage to his reflections on the relation between being and human being. Drawing on a wide range of art, from cave paintings to Francis Bacon, this is a significant and insightful study of the ontology of rhythm in Heidegger and beyond.

Heidegger's Turn To Art

Perspektiven der Analytischen Philosophie (Mentis)

Das vorliegende Buch entwickelt eine allgemeine ontologische Theorie kollektiver Autorschaft, mit der erklärt werden kann, was kollektive Autorschaft ist, wie sie (nicht) entsteht, wie sie (nicht) vergeht und wie sie zu kategorisieren ist. Anhand verschiedener Beispiele werden diese Fragen für die verschiedenen Arten kollektiver Autorschaft beantwortet. Damit erfüllt das vorliegende Buch ein Forschungsdesiderat. Wenngleich wir nämlich von einer Vielzahl von kollektiv geschaffenen Artefakten wie Algorithmen, Impfstoffen, Skulpturen und wissenschaftlichen Theorien umgeben sind und für unseren Umgang mit diesen Artefakten (und ihren Autorinnen und Autoren) ein Verständnis kollektiver Autorschaft benötigen, fehlte es bisher an einer solchen Theorie.

RSA Series in Transdisciplinary Rhetoric

An investigation into one of the largest and most lucrative mineral mining companies in the world, Rio Tinto, Extraction Politics reveals how the company constructs a presence in the places it operates and shapes meanings and orientations toward the environment.
Taking readers on a "rhetorical pilgrimage" across the American Southwest, Nicholas Paliewicz shows how Rio Tinto creates adaptable corporate identities. From Ronald Reagan's frontiersman advertisements for the Borax Mine in California to the pioneer Mormon persona at Bingham Canyon Mine in Salt Lake City and the folksy, paternalistic perspective toward the San Carlos Apache at the proposed mine at Oak Flat, Arizona, the company appropriates local history to embed itself as a valued member of the public--without having to settle in those ecological communities and bear the costs of extraction. This does not occur without resistance, however. Paliewicz also shows how activists use these same tactics to expose Rio Tinto as an exploitative, colonialist polluter.
In an era of surging demand for dwindling supplies of minerals and metals, this book previews what the future of extractivism may look like. Extraction Politics will appeal to scholars and students of environmental communication and activist politics as well as general readers interested in the climate crisis.

The Balance Cube

In high-pressure environments, success is rarely determined by bold ideas alone. It is decided in the quiet, often overlooked moments when work is almost complete.

In The Rubber Spatula Economy, Christopher Connolly introduces a powerful framework for understanding how small execution failures compound into rising costs, declining quality, and cultural fatigue. Drawing on years inside healthcare and senior living foodservice operations, Connolly explores how unfinished work-missed follow-ups, partial resets, half-implemented training-quietly erodes margin and trust.
Rather than offering productivity hacks or motivational slogans, this book examines the structural forces that make finishing work fragile under pressure. It reframes consistency, efficiency, and accountability as design outcomes-not personality traits.

Through clear, disciplined prose, Connolly argues that organizations do not fail because people stop caring. They fail because systems make completion expensive.

Practical without being prescriptive, philosophical without being abstract, The Rubber Spatula Economy offers leaders a new way to see where value is leaking-and how to build environments where finishing becomes ordinary again.

For leaders, operators, and educators working in hospitality, healthcare, and other complex service systems, this book provides a language for the invisible work that ultimately decides who lasts.

The Rubber Spatula Economy

The Architecture of Coherence

Sovereign Engineering is a practical, systems-oriented exploration of how individuals can remain stable inside unstable social, economic, and institutional environments. Rather than offering motivation or career advice, the book applies engineering thinking to personal survival: dependency, incentives, risk, exit, and long-term resilience. It examines why modern stability is often illusory, how institutions actually operate, and how individuals can design lives with lower blast radius, preserved optionality, and sustainable independence. The book is written for experienced professionals who want clarity, realism, and responsibility-not promises or shortcuts.
